Rachel Taylor who trains at BS7 Gym has been selected in the 6 Nations starting lineup for Wales in the match against Ireland on Friday night.

Rachel was at the first match of the tournament on Sunday to see Wales lose by one point in the final few minutes against Italy. Speaking about the forthcoming fixture on Friday, Rachel said "This week I've been declared fit to play, and I will be back with the squad. We fly to Ireland for a Friday night clash at Ashbourne RFC.

"We have come very close to beating the championship winners from last year in the past, so will be hoping for an upset this weekend. A weekend of upsets throws the tournament wide open and myself and Wales will be looking for a win to get the campaign back on track."

We would like to wish Rachel the best of luck!
